Editing Apocalypse Witch:Volume3 Chapter2 (section)

===Part 9===

The fragrance of tea filled the airport control tower.

It had been made strong in the military fashion meant to keep you awake.

The kettle, ceramic pot, strainer, and hourglass might have looked like the tools for an ancient alchemy experiment to someone unfamiliar with tea, but Letnahe Kurent used them all with ease.

“Honey, has she gone to sleep yet? Eh? You made her pancakes before bed? That’s fine, but you need to be careful or you’ll make our son jealous. You know how he always gets upset when his big sister gets a treat and he doesn’t.”

The way she did it all while also speaking on her phone made her look like an expert.

Once the call was over, President Omotesandou Kyouka made a somewhat impressed comment.

“You know a lot about tea.”

“This tea is from my country. When it was grown on a plantation that’s practically in your own backyard, why wouldn’t you want to enjoy it more than anyone else?”

Letnahe poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Kyouka.

Almost like she was testing the girl.

The silver-haired brown-skinned soldier seemed to smile a little after seeing Kyouka wait to drink any until after Letnahe drank out of a cup poured from the same pot.

Light glistened off of the ring and the face of the mobile watch on her left hand and wrist.

The President was interested in the watch.

“That’s an old model.”

“I happen to like this model.” Letnahe closed her eyes behind her glasses. “We can get back to our discussion once we’ve had time to rest. I need to calmly consider the information you have presented to me.”

“Yes.”

Kyouka bit off a small piece of a baked good she must have borrowed from one of the airport’s luxury shops. After detecting the scent of some artificial additives, she casually set it aside.

“About a nuclear attack on the Threat having the opposite effect, you mean?”
